Modifying controls for a BMW R1200GS motorcycle (external link)A very interesting project by an electrical engineer Duncan Drennan of Engineer Simplicity for 'disabled' rider Kobus Raath who has had a below elbow amputation - that is, he has no left hand. Kobus had modified the left handle bar so that a prosthesis (which he makes himself) can attach to it and moved the clutch to the right handle bar. So the next problem he needed to address was the riders controls, such as the indicators and horn, in steps Duncan :-) Read Duncan's article here
